DO I NEED A LAWYER?

Yes, lawyers are officers of the court and, as such, are the only professional occupation of individuals that are licensed by the state to represent your needs in court, although, some items can be handled by non-lawyers, such as filings and documentation. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, “growth in demand will be somewhat mitigated because in an effort to reduce money spent on legal fees, many businesses increasingly are using large accounting firms and paralegals to perform some of the same functions that lawyers do.” See reference This means that services conventionally being provided by law firms could potentially be siphoned and performed by other professions. However, when it comes time to resolve a personal injury issue, a workplace problem, bankruptcy, criminal maters or domestic troubles, the only real solution is a lawyer.
